A Most Remarkable Climate.

At point where the two ranges of the Cordilleras, the eastern and western, which traverse Peru from north to south, meet, and from what is known as the junction of Pasco (el nudo de Pasco) is located the city of Cerro de Pssco, l56 miles from Lima. It is built upon hOneycOmbed foundations and possesses R most re- markRhlc climate by reason Of its great height above the sea level. From Decem- ber to March, a season which the people of the CerrO term their winter, whereas in reality it is their summer. the tempera- ture during the day is from l2 tO l3 de. grees above zero, at night it falls to neal zero. but the water seldom freezes.
 During this season the sun appears at times, and from the purity of the atmOs- phere the heat caused by its rays is almost unbearable. A person may be standing partly in the sunlight and portion of his body may be in the shade; that portion Is disagreeably cold while the part exposed to the sun is uncomfortably warm It would be difficult 10 find another locality where the atmospheric changes are more distinctly marked.-New York Graphic.

COMMISSIONER SPARKS has succeeded admirably in running himself up @ tree, and has brought about his own ears snch buzzing that he naturally i'm aglnes he has unconsciously stirred up A hornets nest. The occasion of all this official terror and consternation is the vas: accumulation of land contests brought about by his wonderfully vieor- ous reform policy, and as matters now stand the work of the general land office IS completely blocked by these volumin- ous contests, while the attorney gen. erals work Is fully two years behind iu consequence. These contests in four cases out of five represents the actual persecution of poor settlers who have been struggling hard to get a start in the world, only to be ruined by this species of democratic reform" As a result the Commissioner is begging con gFess for more help, and 1t is estimated that hls economy and reform will en- tail an extraordinary expense to the government of more than fifty thousand dollars per year for several years-s sum far in excess of the value of the property interests involved. The situation is an interesting one for the public, but it is like the sudden sitting down upon g carpet tack to smarty Sparks.

We are particularly pleased with the description of the Ari- zona wilds that exist near PheniI. and are glad to know they are capable Of supporting human life. The gullIbility of the Albuquerque news ga;herer Is painfully conspicuous.

French and English Cookery.

The difference between French and Eng fish cookery lies chiefiy-so far as meat IS concerned-in the attitude of the cook re sardinC the inherent flavor and aroma Ji the viand. The French are greatly ad' dicted to the habit Of disguising the nat ural flavor of meats with sdyentitlous sauces. the reason being that French meat is often deficient in natural flavor. In England. on the other hand, where the 5-year-old mutton and other kinds oi meat have a more agreeable and richer flavor of their own, the chef best shows his skill by preserving this flavor, which after all. ismore inviting and appeuzlne than any sauce ever invented by cuLl nary genius. The French cook ''is too often tempted to extend his art to darA feshed game, and, seeking to adorn IL with new fiavors, destroys the original savor and aroma, in which consists the yalue of the dish.-New York Post

Historian Bancroft. Method. of Labor

Mir. Bancroft's methods of labor are peculiar. He mas had his historical data in the vaults of a safe deposit company in Washington for years. When he intends to write he sends for whatever notes or manuscripts he needs-And he has copies of all the archives of the United States and several foreign countries, gathered al an immense cost of money and labOr-and devOtes himself tO study until he has every fact fixed in his mind. with the relating circumstances. Then he calls in his stenographer and die tates to him at length, constantly walking up and down his room as he does so, gen orally with his hands under his coat tails, or leaning back in his easy chair with a long German pipe in his mouth. After the notes are written out Mir. Bancroft de votes himself to the work of eondensing and refining them, often reducing i've or six pages into one. The result is then copied and laid away, often for years, until the subject or the epoch of which he Is treating is complete. Then he takes the manuscript. goes over it again in the same manner. leaving scarcely line as Il originally stood, but rewriting the whole New York Commercial Advertiser.

HE spontaneous inquiry Is made by the press of the country of the reasons for the repeal of the anti. Mormon laws by the Arizona legislature, and in nearly every instance the inquiry Is coupled with allusions to considerations other thsn public policy or belief that it was but simple justice. The San Diego Un- ion even goes so far Rs 10 say: There IS generally something suspicious about laws that are passed with so much unsD- inity. We have read about that million dollars going to Washington, to be dis tributed where it would do the most good ia the interest of the Saints, but no report has been made public as 10 how much was sent to Prescott" While We are not advised as to the ingredients used in this essentially democratic pud- ding, We have been told that 1t IS the re- suit of pledge given to the Mormons by the democratic administration ID con sideration of their solid vote at the last election, By what method the few re- publicans in the legislature were led into aiding the democrats to pay theIr partisan campaign debt, We cannot con lecture, bur We do not for a moment be- lieve any portion of that million st all influenced them.

The IDEAL church music is that where so-
10 and congregational singing are com.
bined, but il there is q choice between tn a
two, ! prefer the former. In a solo quar-
tet there may not be the volume of sound
and that peculiar fullnes which a chorus,
ever OF unframed voices, produces, but
at the same time the results are more har.
monlous than congregational singing.
-Four trained voices can make as much
sound as sixteen unframed voices, and be
more pleasant to hear. Without q choir
to lead, congregational singing lacks a
great deal Of motive that church music
should have in order to be impressive;
with a trained quartet, the congregation
can be brought to harmonious methods,
which they naturally catch frsIu those
who lead.
